I think Barton has it all saved and watches it when he want a quick laugh.

[paragon]

Don't tell me SHIELD got their hands on that.

[biggerstick]

Of course they did. It's fine, though, there's nothing to learn from it other than I leap before I look.

[paragon]

Mm. [ adding some spices . . . ] I blew up a few things in my day, though don't know if any of it got on film.

[biggerstick]

Not much. But dad had files on... most things.

[paragon]

. . . Right.

[biggerstick]

SHIELD has everything dad had. They can get you copies if you want them.

[paragon]

[ shrugs. ]

Don't see the need. I was there.

[biggerstick]

But the explosions look much better from a distance.

[paragon]

They looked pretty good from up close.

[biggerstick]

... yeah, okay. They do look good from up close.

[paragon]

Well, it's good to remember, but watching it is too much like living in the past for me. It wouldn't be how I remembered it anyway.

[biggerstick]

If you're gonna get nostalgic, can you hold it until I'm fed? I'm not sure I can do hugs on an empty stomach.

[paragon]

I'm not! That's the point.

[biggerstick]

Oh. Oh, great.

Keep it up.

[paragon]

We can still hug later if you want.

[biggerstick]

If you even try it you won't get a new shield.

[paragon]

I don't know, I'm starting to think I'll never get one.

[biggerstick]

Do you have any idea of how hard it is to do anything without proper tools?

[paragon]

You can't make the tools you need? I mean, for anything, I was just teasing about the shield.

[biggerstick]

I can improvise. You've seen all the stuff I've torn apart.

[paragon]

Got a plate?

[biggerstick]

[he takes a minute to rummage through cabinets and pantries for dishes, when he finds them he hands one over to Steve]

Here. I should actually learn where everything is.

[paragon]

'Specially if you don't want burned eggs.

[ dishes the food onto the plate and handing it back to him. ]

[biggerstick]

You're not having any?
